Episode 329 – M15 Looks Really Good

As it’s preview season, there’s really not much else going on. Magic 2015 looks…well you read the title already. The more I see, the more excited I get. We also spend the requisite amount of time complaining about the crappy new Magic website redesign. Because it’s awful. And you guys know we’re not ones to complain about change.

And either I forgot to take notes or there was no point to doing so. Just in case, here are a few links.

Copying the Chain Veil’s ability will not net you a third activation of your planeswalkers.
1. You activate your PW as normal
2. You activate Veil
3. With that ON THE STACK! you copy the ability
4. Copy resolves, the original is still on the stack!!!!
5. Activate your planeswalkers again? Nope, there is something on the stack.

The Chain Veil’s ability doesn’t say you have to activate the planeswalkers immediately after the ability resolves, and it doesn’t create any planeswalker activations as it resolves. It just says that this turn, you can activate planeswalkers one more time. See the M15 Release Notes for more details on The Chain Veil (in the “Card-Specific Notes” section).
